Yesterday i drove 3 different Zs in a continuing effort to pick one up as soon as possible. I'm noticing via these testdrives that dealers have 1 dedicated test car to let customers really experience the Z which is awesome. I have to admit that it's a case by case scenario. I paid EXTRA attention to certain aspects of the testdrive i.e., oil temps, vibration, tranny/drivetrain noise, etc. One of the cars vibrated significantly more than the other 5 i've driven in total. This one was vibrating so hard that it felt a bit painful to keep my hand firmly on the shifter at redline. I did this over and over with identical results. It does feel a bit weary regarding the long term outlook but if a ton of people's motors are dying at 80k, i think at that point we can set up something to approach Nissan. It was very interesting on this one tho. It wanted to explode!! hahah but in some weird way i like it!!!
